Dan Snyder looks like the manager at the grocery store you worked at in high school.

I feel like you could’ve helped progress the process of not tying everything Osaka does back to that moment by not using the entire final paragraph of this article to tie Osaka’s actions in this unrelated match that didn’t even feature Williams back to that moment.
Thank you for staying laser focused on sports by breaking down his swing. I’d be upset if I was tricked into reading about international geopolitical events on Deadspin.
Football in the South in particular has long had only a partial veneer at best over the days when black Americans toiled for their white masters. While most of them would never admit it in public, that dynamic remains a big part of the sport’s draw for many.
Mocking: Only an inferior model of Assassin Droid would fail to recognize a target-rich environment of meatbags.
I remember finding out about Princess Mononoke because I was a big fan of Gaiman, and I found an article about him where he talked about this anime he’d written the translation for, specifically noting how this was something he never did, but when they showed him the film, he decided he needed to do it in order to…
Why indeed, when you could go for a Ghibli aesthetic...
Driving back and forth to LA a couple times this summer, I’m seeing more of these on the road, and there are even a few companies that rent them. I’d much rather drive a campervan on a winding mountain road that what amounts to a fucking aircraft carrier with wheels.
Why not campervans?
The gamma radiation bit isn’t even out of nowhere, it was a plot point in the first Avengers that they needed Banner to track the tesseract’s gamma signature.
Remember the techno-babble about how the Gauntlet gives off gamma radiation? It wasn’t about power or raw strength, it was about the ability to handle the Gauntlet specifically. As Banner/Hulk himself says, he was practically “made for this”.
Thor had lost a lot more than just a fight with Thanos, though. Mother, father, adopted brother (with whom he reconciled), girlfriend, planet, almost all of his people, destiny to be the King of the Asgardians (i.e. the whole purpose of his “are you worthy?” arc through his own films) — that stuff is all gone by the…
Thor had the strength, but his mind wasn’t in the right place. It would need mental focus on the objective (bring back the “Snapped”) for the Un-Snap to work, and Thor was not there.
Clearly, the personalities have merged. “Smart Hulk” sounds like a refined NY tough guy and speaks without Banner’s hesitant timidity; furthermore, Banner would never have said “we got our asses beat” during casual conversation. And the voice itself sounds like an amalgam of the two - not like either individually.
“In Gemini Man, an assassin named Henry is being hunted down by a younger clone of himself, referred to as Junior. The script had been floating around Hollywood for decades but no one wanted to make it with two different actors. Most thought it would somehow have to be the same person for it to really work and…
“who is the orange man?”
It was mentally the strongest I have even seen Fed play. So many times I thought he would go away but he kept battling. He was the better of the two players today, but Djokovic outplayed him when it mattered.
I’m just gonna go ahead and say that Bernie should do what he should’ve done before he announced his 2020 candidacy (his 2016 run was fine—and necessary): Step aside for Warren, and be the elder statesman he’s earned the right to be.
Not everyone needs to be President. Shit, President isn’t even the strongest office in…
